Last week Elvis & I sat down (remotely unfortunately!) with the indomitable Holly Tucker, founder of Holly & Co.
We have known Holly for what seems like forever... Elvis & Kresse was one of the first small brands to go live on her first big venture, Not On The High Street and we are now very excited to be joining Holly & Co, a wonderful marketplace celebrating the most creative small businesses in the UK.
Holly has a regular podcast where she interviews founders and innovators, her research is absolutely first rate and what can I say, so far she is the only person who has been able to get Elvis to put on the headphones and record.
It was a great chat, we hope you enjoy it. It is definitely worth waiting until the end where we read letters written to our younger selves and Elvis manages to remind me once again just how very lucky I am.
